    Trolley/winch combo

    Reg. Is the Arbor Trolley being sold in the U.S.? I can't remember. Did the nose of the trolly dig into the ground when being winched? Or, did you load it heavier behind the axles to keep it balanced? I can see how that was the perfect method for the job. And the 1st person view was a...

    Re: Are you a self-worshiping thief or a follower? If I said I was a lawyer, shouldn't I know the laws to help my clients? Wouldn't it make sense that a Christian should know the Bible? After all, it is like a manual for living daily life. What's wrong with that? I don't think quoting...

    Blocking down Pines

    I hate blocking down spars. I hate the redundant steps. And with Pine pitch... even worse. I try to block down Pines as fast as I can simply because I feel as if I'm racing against the sap flow. But, to answer the question, I think that is really fast (for those shorter sections). Could...

    Should have been butt tied...

    Ha. I was waiting for someone to mention that. But, I'll take the blame Jim. I'll admit 100% that this is a "teachable moment." In no way am I (or did many of us) call this climber any belittling names or express any macho arrogance. Riggs on the other hand... I don't know if your approach...

    Re: TCI\'s Effer 655 Knuckle Boom Don't they make the wireless remotes that will tell you the actual weight of the load?

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yqzey0sFO...feature=g-all-c So many things to talk about with this video. But, I thought I'd focus on butt tie vs. mid-way tie. If he had butt tied that log, he would not have been hurt. Even with too much friction being used with his choice to use a natural...

    PTO shaft into Model 90

    We had to take off the bell housing because we simply couldn't align everything. We discovered a ceased "pilot bearing." The bearing had been ceased and broken for a while too. Unbelieveable! That could have been worse in the long run. And for good measure, we bought a new clutch disk.

    TCI's Effer 655 Knuckle Boom

    Re: TCI\'s Effer 655 Knuckle Boom If it's a hot day, I often like the crane to fly me to the next rigging point to stay cooler. If it's a cold day, I often like to beat the crane to the next rigging point to get warm.

    TCI's Effer 655 Knuckle Boom

    Re: TCI\'s Effer 655 Knuckle Boom Very nice rig! I can see "both sides of the coin" for operating the Kboom from the tree vs. the ground. If you have a Rig'Em & Roll, it would be awesome to operate from the tree because you wouldn't always have to climb out to the next rigging point...

To sum it up he said unless someone is seriously bleeding up in a tree we have to be very careful how we get them down. Speed isn't the...

    PTO shaft into Model 90

    That may be the lead I'm looking for guys. By visual inspection, the clutch looked off to us, but I had no real way to validate that. After some time of trying over and over again, I was thinking my eyes were going bad. But, I'll try that tomorrow.

    PTO shaft into Model 90

    Here is a photo to show my issue a little better. We were running out of day light... But, the arrow pointing left shows how there is a gap when trying to push the PTO up to the bell housing of the clutch. It simply won't go in. The arrow pointing down is a temporary spacer. We were trying...

    PTO shaft into Model 90

    The shaft doesn't have a special way of aligning. It's just like the end in the illustration. The red arrow shows how simple ours is. The weird thing is, we changed the throw out bearing in the fall. We had no issue aligning it and putting it in. It just simply went in with no problem.

    I guess I should say, we cannot get back into the flywheel.

    PTO shaft into Model 90

    You guys ever change out the bearings on a PTO? We just changed ours out, but we cannot get the PTO shaft to get back into the clutch. Can anyone offer help?
